Former Arsenal captain Perez Mertacker launched a training program in Jordan aimed at improving the mental health of children affected by conflict and violence. The German, now a manager at the Arsenal Academy, helped launch the program with Save the Children at Za `atari refugee camp, one of the largest camps in the world, home to almost 80, 000 Syrian refugees. According to Arsenal`s website, `more than half of its population is children and many of them live there for six years. `


`When the children suffer, we all lose, people have left their country and have no experience in this respect, so I talked to them and learned a lot, and it was a privilege to visit them. ` The young people I met are focusing on whatis happening now and this project will give them the courage to cope with the difficulties they face day by day as well as to provide them with the skills to have a better future, `said Mertacker. Arsenal said the project `aims to reach 4 500 girls and boys for three years` while the program consists of `seven training modules that will run through 20-week cycles. `Five terrains have been built in `Za `atari`, and in Jakarta and Indonesia, seven terrains have been built where `thousands of children are at risk of exploitation and violence in the neighborhoods of the city. `
